Career
Born and raised in Montreal, Quebec, Canada Cyr came to prominence in her late teens on Montreal cable television assisting and presenting on shows such as Musi-Video (a forerunner to Canada"s MuchMusic). She fitted in her television presenting and People’s career with studying Communications at Montreal"s Concordia University. While working at Musi-video she was asked to provide female backing vocals for the new studio Synthpop band Nudimension who were appearing on the show.
Originally selected to appear with Nudimension mainly for her good looks, it would soon become apparent to band founders Louis Rondeau and Marc Fontaine that Cyr was also a very competent, bilingual vocalist, and she was retained to work on the Band"s two albums (one in French and the other in English)
Released on the Saisons label principally in Quebec, it became a minor hit in the francophone regions of Canada.
And by export in France and remaining North America. Cyr and Rondeau appeared together on the Canadian network television show Lautrec "83 (presented by Donald Lautrec) to promote the single, her highest-profile television performance.
She also appeared on CFCF-television Friday night"s "Nite Life" presented by Peter King, representing Nudimension. Four other singles followed, including the English "Big Boy" and French "Hors Louisiana Loi (Anne Marie version)" which both featured Cyr on lead vocals and acted as a clear demonstration of her vocal range in both languages.
Nudimension itself would eventually stop recording around 1990.
Cyr continues to live in Montreal, but no longer works in the media. The majority of Cyr"s work with Nudimension is featured on their 2009 greatest hits album The Best of Nudimension.
